Sound Parameter
Largo User´s Manual
34
•
When a comb type is selected, the frequencies
near the cutoff frequency are emphasized (comb+)
or attenuated (comb-).
You can bring more movement into the sound by
modulating the cutoff frequency via the LFOs, the
envelopes or the
Keytrack
parameter of the filter. At a
value of
64
and a
Resonance
value of
114
, the filter
oscillates with 440Hz, which is equal to A3 (the Comb+
type oscillates one octave higher). Tuning is scaled in
semitone steps. When
Keytrack
is set to
+100%
, the filter
can be played in a tempered scale.
Resonance
0...127
Controls the emphasis of the frequencies around the cutoff
point. Use lower values in the range of
0…80
to give
more brilliance to the sound. At higher values of
80…113
the sound gets the typical filter character with a strong
boost around the cutoff frequency. When the setting is
raised to values above
113
, the filter starts to self-oscillate,
generating a pure sine wave. This feature can be used to
create analog-style effects and percussion-like electronic
toms, kicks, zaps etc.
Drive
0...127
Determines the amount of saturation that is added to the
signal. If set to
0
, no saturation will be added or, in other
words, the signal will remain clean. Lower values will add
some harmonics to the signal, resulting in a warm
character. Increasing the value will bring in more and
more distortion, suitable for harder lead sounds and
effects.
Drive Curves
miscellaneous
Determines the character of the drive. The following drive
curves are available:
•
Light
produces a symmetric light distortion.
•
Tube
simulates the asymmetric distortion of a tube
circuit.
•
Medium
produces a symmetric intermediate
distortion.
•
Hard
cuts the signal at a certain level.
•
Shaper
modulates the level of the signal with a
sine waver. High levels will be turned down while
medium levels will be raised up. Same results with
negative levels. A sawtooth wave for example
